One product, many solutions.
Not everyone has ultra-high end COTs PCs or a GPU / CPU combination that can power Polaron running locally – therefore we’re working to host Polaron in the cloud.
As a managed service running in the cloud this allows our users to access simulations and services over a web connection. Connect via APIs and create their own custom queries and interactions into, within and exporting data from each simulation instance.
This is maturing increasingly quickly and is broadly split into two services – essentially public and private, which relates to a managed service.
We can also offer WebRTC support – which provides an ultra lightweight multi-user capability (think Google Meet / Zoom / Teams) to allow simultaneous collaboration and co-ordination via our customised WebRTC rendering engine – allowing up to 10+ plus concurrent users to use our platform simultaneously via a web browser.
Note: We are currently refining our price model based on operating costs. Currently, we’re offering an initial pricing model, but this is unlikely to change significantly from the Early Access programme premium pricing. We’ve also not included the PC game pricing information in these lists as this is managed via the distribution channels (e.g. Steam, Epic, etc)
Public service pricing
Basic Level Plan / Early Access Sandbox
Not sure which version to apply for – start here and you can always upgrade later. The Early Access Sandbox has basic features, restricted data and capabilities.
- Price: £0.00 / month
- We use OSM data (free) to let anyone map and model in Polaron. This provides vast Mapping Interoperability and a means to export data to other formats like OSM. We cap some features to keep operating costs down but offer many models and simulations. Access to the Polaron marketplace is included for pay-as-you-go needs.
What do you get access to?
- Polaron OSM Supported layers
- Access to public models & limited modification
- Export data from Polaron
- Auto-video maker
- Use the Polaron Marketplace for sharing and benefits
- Download or buy community-created premium features
How much storage/usage?
- 5 x maps (50km2) with unlimited simulation time
- 5 x embedded maps and reduced refresh time on simulation updates
- Limited to smaller sized Obj files for 3D import
- Export functionality & limited API access for integration
Developer Access Plan
Want to develop on the platform – we want you here!
To offer you support and the interfaces you need we ask you to contribute more – to allow us to allocate time and support to your specific needs.
- Price: £500.00-£1000.00/month
- Aimed at power users, this plan is for those who want to utilize our tools on a larger scale. It’s a gateway to a commercially licensed private service.
Developer plan features plus:
- Full API access with capped call volumes
- Cached mapping services and exportable maps
- Tuneable systems for optimization
- Integration into other platforms
- Customised infrastructure based on use case
- Unlimited public and private models & simulations
How much storage/usage?
- Unlimited maps with unlimited simulation time
- Unlimited embedded maps and rapid refresh time on simulation updates
- Advanced features including scripting, automation, and simulation creation
- Advanced API, data extraction, and analytics tools
Premium Access Plan
This is the premium service – whereby you can import and use your own data, and export data and results from Polaron.
Please note that this is subject to revision and cost of operations.
Initial pricing will be honoured for 6 months.
- Price: £100.00/month per seat.
- This plan offers fewer constraints on maps and allows for collaborative tools and web-based sessions. Store more data, access node tools and editors, and hold multi-user sessions.
Offers Early Access features plus:
- Expanded formats and standards supported
- Access to private and Urban Hawk generated models
- Export larger sizes and areas of data
- Use premium Polaron Marketplace features
- Expanded styling options
How much storage/usage?
- 25 x maps (50km2) with unlimited simulation time
- 50 x embedded maps and reduced refresh time on simulation updates
- Larger Obj files for 3D import, Point Cloud, and Meshes
- Expanded export functionality & API access
Private SaaS pricing
Private SaaS & Commercial Pricing (B2B)
Urban Hawk offers Polaron as a service. We also provide customisation and external systems integration where a dedicated instance of Polaron is more suitable. This model is driven by a license fee and hosting costs but allows for much more flexibility. It can be integrated with external hosting for storage or even integrated into your data systems for a more customisable use of the simulations. This is best suited for businesses, local authorities, or agencies, or those with sensitive data that can’t operate on a shared tenant or host.
There are many variables to this, so understanding your needs helps us ensure we can meet your demands. It aids in supporting adoption, growth, and ensuring sufficient resources. The simplest method is always a conversation.
Note: We are currently refining our price model based on operating costs. Currently, we’re offering an initial pricing model, but this is unlikely to change significantly from the Early Access programme premium pricing.
B2C Public Shared Service Pricing
For the immediate future, the Early Access is free. We aim to always offer a free version, so your data, simulation, and maps are safe. Happy modelling!
To ensure the greatest number of consumers can access our service, we offer a freemium model. This allows pro-sumers to upgrade for more storage, processing, and features. If you’ve outgrown this, we offer an upgrade pathway to a commercial instance and license. We can move your models, maps, and data to a private instance once you’ve exceeded the public hosted capabilities.
